Nathanael D. Striker Posted March 29, 2019 Report Share Posted March 29, 2019 That has been floating around by the same people, like Corbyn and SNP Westminster leader Ian Blackford for a little while now. True, but I imagine that sentiment is growing amongst the minority parties. Though, let's see how Monday goes before the bells sound Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~British Soul~ Posted March 29, 2019 Report Share Posted March 29, 2019 And the pound has fallen as a result, joys. True, but I imagine that sentiment is growing amongst the minority parties. Though, let's see how Monday goes before the bells sound I would agree. We should wait and see what will happen on Monday.On another note, Donald Tusk has called for an European Council on April 10th Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nathanael D. Striker Posted April 1, 2019 Report Share Posted April 1, 2019 Round 2 of Indicative Votes started 20 minutes ago. MPs are voting on 4 options: Common Market 2.0, Customs Union, Confirmatory Public Vote, and Parliament Supremacy for NoDeal vs Revoke Vote. Voting ends in 10 minutes. https://amp.cnn.com/cnn/uk/live-news/brexit-indicative-votes-monday-gbr-intl/index.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nathanael D. Striker Posted April 1, 2019 Report Share Posted April 1, 2019 Call me when Labour gets on second ref (they won't) The Confirmatory Public Vote appears to be a Second Referendum of sorts, one that gives citizens the final say on any deal passed by Parliament.

The end of the live stream had some considering another day of Indicative Votes, noting that the Customs Union lost by 3 and could be altered a bit to get a majority.

I don't know if that'll happen though Corbyn said almost an hour ago that if May can put her deal to the house three times, then the other options should get a third chance as well. I'm not sure if it'll happen either, but yeah. Ken Clarke said his customs union (the plan that lost by 3 votes) did not get a majority because some people’s vote supporters would not back it because they only wanted to back a second referendum. And some MPs would not back it because they wanted common market 2.0, even though they would have been happy with the customs union plan too, he says.

Customs Union means you guys still get all the EU regs and need EU approval to negotiate a deal with the US for example right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nathanael D. Striker Posted April 3, 2019 Report Share Posted April 3, 2019 What deal is going to be approved in the next 9 days striker? Whatever May and Corbyn agree upon, if they agree on anything after their talks. Though any deal at this point would need an extension regardless. Now, did you understand the title? EDIT: Considering the vote for Parliament controlled Indicative Votes Monday failed 310-311 after Bercow had to break the tie, this may be the last option. Though, May's Government may do the votes themselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But yeah, that headline is misleading as such a request (the end date had been rejected once before) hasn't been granted yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
